NOTE 1: A 15 Amp, 120 Volt circuit is required. A dedicated circuit
is preferred but not essential in all cases. A dedicated circuit will
be required if, after installation, the circuit breaker trips or fuse
blows on a regular basis when the heater is operating. Additional
appliances on the same circuit may exceed the current rating of the
circuit breaker.
Install the fireplace assembly
into the mantel (refer to
mantel assembly instructions).
!
IMPORTANT: If not using
a Dimplex mantel, the
firebox must be installed
in an enclosure with the
following MINIMUM
internal/opening
dimensions (Figure 3).
New Wall Construction
1. Select a suitable location
that is not susceptible to
moisture and is away
from drapes, furniture and high traffic.
2. Place the fireplace in the desired location to see how it will look in
the room.
3. Mark the desired location on the floor and store the fireplace in a
safe, dry and dust free location.
4. Use studs to frame an opening of 30 ¾ inches (781 mm) wide X
25 ¾ inches (654 mm) high X 10 ¾ inches (273 mm) deep.
Option #1: The power cord can be lead from behind the trim and
along the wall to an outlet near the fireplace.
Option #2: A new outlet can be installed inside the new frame
construction.
Plug the unit into a 15 Amp, 120 Volt outlet. If the cord does not reach,
you may use an extension cord rated for a minimum of 1875 Watts.
